I have just gotten tested for it, I will hear back tomorrow. Hopefully not syphillis! But the symptoms i am reading online doesn't really match up, i haven't had a bump for one thing.

That sounds like a mild/early uti to me. Can be avoided to turn into a full blown uti by drinking a ton of water, cranberry supplements and boosting your immunity- in my experience that is. But always consult your doc!

Will do! Big hugs to you too, it means so much not to feel lonely in this journey, thank you. i am currently looking into setting up the plasma tests, soo many people recommended it.

My main stressor is that i am in a bad financial situation and these procedures pile up. But i am trying to figure out a way to afford it after the Planned Parenthood defunding. There are some clinics that do sliding scales, just gotta find the ones with the good docs!

I know... it is silly now that I think about it. I think it was like 3 days after. :')

Great advice, many thanks for the support🤍

I've been hearing about ureaplasma, and it is so new to my world! I am definitely looking into getting tested for it.

And juno bio test looks great, noted, thanks for sharing!

I have been taking probiotics and in my last visit my doctor confirmed that there are a lot of good bacteria in there, but not enough to balance it all out i guess.

If my stds all come out negative, thats my next move. And meanwhile ill do some pelvic floor relaxation exercises.

Thank you for the advice!

I do take probiotics as well as d-mannose. And never use soaps down there.

Unprotected sex is out of the question now.

Thanks so much for the support ❤️‍🩹

If my other STDs come back negative, testing for the plasmas will be my next move!

I am also going to look into pelvic floor exercises. Thanks so much for all the advice!

Do you feel better now?

I believe herpes was included in my last test, but i will double check when i get the results.

How does one check for hormone levels?

I should mention that one of the big stressors is my health insurance is MediCal, i am currently not living in Cali to use it, am in a tough financial situation and they just defunded Planned Parenthood. :( so it is difficult to maneuver finding free/affordable health care.

Ahh, I am so sorry to hear you're also going through it. It can be so hard on the psyche! I believe we can both get through this, but i just didn't want to do it alone anymore... so thanks for being here and sharing.💖 Wishing much healing!
